Here's our 16 game prediction for Patriots' 2017 schedule

Week 17: vs. New York Jets

To close out the regular season, New England should earn an easy win over the Jets, again. With or without the possibility of Jimmy Garoppolo playing some snaps in this one, New England should cruise to a win.

The Jets have built a roster that is not capable of winning games like these, against teams like the Patriots. Even in the final regular season game of the year, New York won’t muster a win. Regardless of Brady or Garoppolo under center in this one, the Patriots will perform well and look to close the season with a win.

This Jets defense finished 28th in the league last year in points per game with 25.6, and New England’s offense on paper looks even better than it was last season.
